There really wasn’t a purpose to this photo. I was on my way home from my boyfriends house one night and saw tons of frogs hopping across the road, so I jumped out of the car and caught one and took it home to my house and took pictures. Then let it go in my backyard. It’s so cute!!

This was taken while I made homemade bread for the recipe assignment. I was trying to get a small depth of field. I don’t know if I like the hand in the picture or not, but this was one of the best pictures from the process. I like the way the light hits the bread and butter on it.

This picture was taken for the photo journalism of the month. I went to art club one day and took pictures. Luckily it happened to be the same day that they were making plaster masks, which involved covering volunteers’ faces with plaster everywhere. There were only holes for them to breath through their nose. I was focusing on Mariah and her facial expression because that was a main theme of the assignment.

This is also a picture that I took while I was at work. I really like this picture because the burrito looks really simple and then the block of cheese in the background is just sitting there. I don’t know why, but I like it. It’s probably because I make these all the time at work. I like this picture at lot.

I took this picture after work one night. Mike and Robby were taking out CBT and I had the camera on a slow shutter speed. I really like this picture because you can see Robby and then you can see something that resembles a ghost that is walking away from him. I took Mike out of this picture because I wanted Robby to be the center focus.

This is a picture that I took way back in September. I was at work one night, and we were doing the nightly list, and Jonny had put all the onions in a select box. I like this picture just because of the lighting. It’s nothing special, but it reminds me of my job, which is good sometimes I guess.

I took this picture while I was making cookies with my mom. I really like the short depth of field, and I decided to put it in black and white and keep the cookie in color because it draws the eye to that single cookie. Looking at this picture makes me really hungry, but all in all, I really like how it turned out.

This is a photo of one of the students before the play the drama department recently put on. One of my best friends is really into drama/theatre and helps out a lot with backstage stuff so I was able to get a few photos of some of the actors in the make-up room before the play. I really like this photo because of the reflections from the mirrors and all the lights. The only thing I did was mess with the lighting a little bit.

This photo was also taken for the green theme assignment. I liked the focus in this photo and the bright green color of the kiwi. The only thing I did when editing it was play with the color a little bit and I really like how it turned out.

I took this photo for the green theme assignment. I really liked how it looked when I took it and after doing a little bit of editing, messing around with the color a little bit, I liked it even more. I really like close ups and I also thought the lighting in this photo was pretty good too.

I made brownie’s for our Cookbook assignment. We had to take pictures of our food and make a brochure out of them. So I took this picture of the brownie mix. I chose this picture because it was to best photo that I took out of all of them.
